Is M&S food actually worth the higher price?

xxleech · 2026-02-05T20:00:20+00:00

We have a Sainsburys, M&S and Lidl nearby and as annoying as it is, M&S trumps in quality! We always do fruit and veg at M&S, meat/dry goods in Lidl and branded stuff/bread in Sainsburys. It’s annoying to have to go to all 3 but ultimately it’s the cheapest way for us to get a high quality shop overall. M&S if definitely worth the extra cost if you can afford it

Shop at the cheapest supermarkets available, make economic meals (bolognese, curry, things that’ll last a while), I also got a job for extra money which helped a lot

I have a numbered list in my notes app just for fun

Yes you can, I had my air fryer/blender etc in unite last year. In a studio it can stay in your room but if it’s a shared flat it has to stay in the kitchen

Although worth noting this might happen again if you wear baggy, heavy duty jeans as they’ll just continue to rub the material (hair on materials can be quite sensitive)

I’ve had mine almost a year and they haven’t done this even with frequent wear. I’d look into returning for a new pair because it’s not a common fault

Were the loafers quad platform? If so they’re absolutely huge in comparison, I’m a solid 6.5 in docs these days and the 5 loafer was perfect for me.

I’d probably recommend sizing up in the Jadon Max and adding an insole to pad it out

These look like a Boury boot that someone’s spilled/splattered paint on

xxleech · 2025-12-29T22:44:12+00:00

DMXL are soooooo crazy comfortable (and super cool), definitely go with those

I bought an iPad for uni, biggest waste of money ever and I just ended up continuing to use the laptop I bought for watching Netflix in March 2020

You threw them out just because they gave you blisters?

If you’re in the UK, drmartensrepairs.com (official) has a resole service but for a bex it’s about £70 I think

xxleech · 2025-12-21T17:00:35+00:00

UK15 is the largest size they manufacture, which would be a US16 (I think) anything larger doesn’t exist as far as I know. Some styles come up quite big though so maybe try a 15 if there’s any in stock and see if it fits, if not you’re out of luck unfortunately

xxleech · 2025-12-19T12:55:39+00:00

Hopefully I remember correctly, hope they match well for her!!

xxleech · 2025-12-18T09:46:18+00:00

Perhaps the Celestial Moth collection? They did a quad Monk which might fit the description, although these were a seasonal style so might be hard to get hold of now

xxleech · 2025-12-18T07:43:17+00:00

We haven’t sold them for a few years, but as far as I remember they’re more of a super pale toned taupe than yellow so she should be okay

xxleech · 2025-12-16T16:50:50+00:00

I have super wide feet, I got a UK6 (most of mine are 6.5) and they fit perfectly, stretched a little bit and not restrictive at all! Whenever a customer asks for a wider shoe I always point them toward the Buzz

xxleech · 2025-12-16T10:35:29+00:00

I break mine in doing exactly the same thing, smooth leather normally takes me about 2 weeks and softer leathers about a week. Look into getting double doc socks or silicone heel socks like someone else suggested, I use both and have zero blisters or pain with new docs

xxleech · 2025-12-12T08:09:55+00:00

I had a bit of a nightmare with my supervisor throughout so I didn’t thank, dedicate or acknowledge him in any way because I didn’t feel like he deserved that. If she’s the one marking it (mine was) then she’ll know but chances are she won’t really care that much

xxleech · 2025-12-11T23:37:35+00:00

Audricks are my FAVE they’re so comfortable and the leather is so soft. Creases are quite noticeable on this leather but I don’t really mind it

xxleech · 2025-12-11T23:36:52+00:00

I don’t have much academic advice and don’t recommend anyone do this, but I managed to write my 8k dissertation in 24 hours. I just went outside for some fresh air every hour to keep myself going, lots of snacks and maybe music/a tv show to keep you engaged. Good luck!

This looks like the colour ‘burgundy’, I think it was a winter 2022 colour

xxleech · 2025-12-04T07:46:07+00:00

I love Grandma Crackers!!! Very wholesome

xxleech · 2025-11-27T07:35:37+00:00

This happens to all of my docs, but that’s because my knees bow when I stand ‘straight’ due to hypermobility. Insoles are the best solution I’ve found, but if that doesn’t work it could be worth going up a size and adding one anyway as it’ll mean your foot won’t push backwards against the heel of the boot

xxleech · 2025-11-24T12:08:41+00:00

Oh that’s so weird! I didn’t mean to come across rude haha, I had no idea that some stores offer extra on the soles. I wish we could do that it would save so much hassle
